Ok, i've still got the standard Ford headunit in (4500 i think off the top of my head??) only had the car since september. Today i've been listening to a cd, gone to eject it, and nothing happens. It fails to eject the cd, and displays CD Error on the display.... SO guess where the cars going to be going  They might aswell fix some other problems whilst they're at it aswell.

It was indeed a CD-R  What sort of turnaround time do you think its likely to be? if they send it away.

Would ford leave me with the car to drive still? Presumably just leaving a nice empty space?

Hi, replacing the unit with a new one (6006) aint worth it, they rip up yr dash and the prob with the 6006 is a design flaw in the eject mech (I've had original & CDR's jam), trust me, rather unjam the unit yrself (and use CDR's rather cos u scratch the jammed CD while unjamming it), or just put in an after market unit and get the adaptor...cheers

actually i dont know what made me do it, but i just went out to get a cd out of the car, and had an idea to try and eject the jammed cd, and would you believe it. The bloody thing ejected first time!  At least i can listen to a different cd now wayhey! How easy is it to replace the front casing to change the stereo, and can i get a pre-made replacement, that only has space for one stereo or something similar to save me butchering the current one?

When I first read Gareths post I did think to myself that there was a few ways that could be taken!!
